General chat about beauty advent calendars.

I have covid and am not feeling very festive so will probably hold of on opening my BM for now

Hope it passes quickly @MidnightMeltdown

My plan was to save BM for after Christmas but my cat has almost opened door number 4 so once that goes I‘ll do the lot.

Despite CB ignoring me and holding my AC hostage, I find myself considering their latest edit.

Thank you @Pinenu 🙂

I hope so too!

My BM calendar arrived! And if I open a door a day from today, it'll take me through to Christmas Eve so that's what I shall do.
I like the shade of Day - looks very wearable.

Haven’t opened mine yet but considering doing it from today to add an extra bit of Christmas sparkle.

Mines coming today! I'm tempted to just open it

Mine arrived this morning. I haven't decided when to open it. The product details are on the back. 6 full sizes & 6 minis.

I opened day 2 today and day 3’s product had come loose and made its way to that window, too. I think it might be a sign to get on with it…

JL AC is back in stock online; at full price!

@EmmatheStageRat snap it up! 🤔

Not at all AC related but I thought I’d ask the experts - what does Flowerbomb smell like please? Anything vaguely similar it could be compared to?

I’d get out a squirt a tester but I have a million deliveries arriving for a build project, so I’m stuck indoors for a while.

DS (15) has decided he'd like a fragrance advent calendar next year. We had a search and can't find any men's fragrance ones available so I said I'd make him one. I'll probably start with one of the Perfume Society discovery boxes but does anyone know where else I can get hold of samples?

Cowshed £40 @ Cowshed.

Sniph does a subscription with new scent samples - pretty generous ones. You can choose the type and frequency. They are fab.

I think quite strong vanilla, sweet smell? Someone may be along to correct this.

@InfinityOrUndefined Thank you for the Cowshed tip - ordered one for DD for January!

@InfinityOrUndefined Thank you for the Cowshed advent heads-up -fantastic value and I've just ordered a couple for next year. You can also get topcashback so worth going through the site. Win win and thanks!

Yes thanks for that, I have ordered one for next year, it looks lovely

Oh no I really really don’t need Cowshed. But I appear to be buying it 😔

Thanks! I’ve bought it. Hanging my head in shame…

Oh I think o need cowshed 😳

DD and I saw it at Bicester Village for £90 - which was a good price then. She said she would love it, but I already had JL for her. So this will be a bonus Christmas pressie for January. Now thinking of following @Helenlovescats and getting one for me for next year! You're a bad lot on here!

Thanks infinity, a nice treat for January.

Thank you for the head's up. Ordered for Jadvent ... will enjoy that!

I’ve ordered one too, thanks for the tip.
